On September 29, the Conference of State Bank Supervisors (CSBS) and the Multi-state Mortgage Committee (MMC) released a bulletin titled, “Supervisory Expectations Regarding the Use of Electronic Examination Tools.” The bulletin explains the MMC’s use of electronic examination tools and the supervisory expectations for mortgage companies undergoing the state examination process. As a result of a 2008 initiative by the MMC, state regulators have been using technology to review loan transaction data for years, originally setting the expectation that companies fully participate with the process by 2011. According to the bulletin, however, “the mortgage industry has regularly failed to provide clean data in a format acceptable to the regulators’ technology platform.” As a result of this non-compliance, the MMC recommended that, going forward, state regulators take enforcement action against companies that are unable to provide accurate data in a timely fashion, so as to ensure a “more efficient and timely regulatory process.”
